We celebrate you, and you should too.

Vanity is good...

Photos are our way of taking a moment in time, freezing it, packaging it, and saving it for later. It's essential for us to take the time to create memorabilia of who we are at any given time, and to celebrate the beauty and the flaws of that moment, so that we can have it forever, and be able to look at ourselves in the past with awe and wonder.

We have specially developed our series "Vanity Portraits" as a way for our clients to stop time and create something that can be reflected on for the rest of their lives, as a moment they felt proud of themselves, or a moment in their lives that they wanted to memorialize, and capture their beauty, so that when they're older, and grey hairs start coming out and skin doesn't look quite like what it used to, they can reflect back and remember how stunning they were at that time, and how they have aged like a fine wine as age has multiplied their natural beauty.

FAQ

What is a "vanity portrait"?

Simply stated, we believe that you deserve to take the time to invest in high-quality photos of yourself, whether for your own memories, or as a gift. Some might call these kinds of photos "vain", but in our opinion, there's nothing wrong with celebrating who you are, your natural beauty, and capturing that beauty to remember, forever.

Where are you based and do you travel?

We are based out of Austin, Texas, USA. Primarily, we shoot out of our home-studio, however we are both very flexible with travel needs and plans. If you live in another city, feel free to contact us and we can see when we might be able to schedule some time to come visit you! Maybe if you can get a few friends interested, we can schedule a trip to your city!

What is the experience like?

From the time you walk in our door, you'll be greeted with a friendliness and professionalism that we feel is absolutely essential to the experience. We will give you some time to talk about yourself and help us fully understand your desired outcome, and help you feel comfortable with the process.

Typically the shoot is about an hour & half, during which we typically make 3 look changes, which typically starts with a bodysuit look, to help you get warmed up to the shooting experience. Once you're comfortable, we'll move onto a lingerie look, so we can help you capture your sensual nature. Finally, we move onto a nude or implied nude look. You deserve to remember how your body appeared, in all its natural beauty.

We provide any props that should go along with the shoot, and we love to use flowers in our shoots, because they symbolize nature and beauty, but also fragility and impermanence. How we look today is fleeting, and the beauty of a picked flower is the same.

In the end, you wind up with amazing, beautifully lit and highly detailed photos that show who you are, who you were in that moment, and who you will always be inside: powerful, beautiful, and feminine.

What is different about your style versus others?

While there are loads of amazing photographers out in the marketplace, we believe our process and style of photography is uniquely different from others. From the professionalism we demonstrate during our shoot, to the style of our lighting, down to the final retouching process, we aim for an end product that you can look at and feel proud of yourself and not have to worry about being hard on yourself.

We light our shoots with professional quality strobes to craft light schemes and coloration which is both bold and natural. We edit our shoots using professional, magazine quality methods and retouching tools, so that tiny imperfections disappear, but the fundamentals of your body remain in their natural, beautiful state.

In the end, you wind up with photographs that are unparalleled in their quality. Your images could have come straight out of a magazine and are staring you.

Do I have to get naked?

Our Vanity Portrait sessions are meant for clients who are ready to celebrate who they are as a woman, through and through. We believe that going through our steps of shooting, from bodysuit down to nude or implied looks, you are symbolically casting aside society's dictation on what kinds of photos are salacious or taboo. You should feel unabashed taking photos of yourself as mother nature made you.

That being said, we do recognize that not everyone is ready to bare themselves completely. And we want you to know that you can trust us as your chosen photography team to never push you beyond your boundaries. If you would prefer to remain clothed during the shoot, communicate that with us ahead of time and we'll be happy to make sure the shoot is focused on delivering to your comfort level.

How long does it take to get photos?

Typically, after a photoshoot, you'll have access to your preview gallery within 48 hours. For those who are on payment plans, we grant access following completion of payment of the sitting fee.

After that our speed is in your court. You'll select your favorite three photos from the entire shoot which are included in your sitting package. When you finish selection, we aim to return your final edits within 10 business days. If you would like to purchase any additional photos or other add-ons, then we will do our best to respect a similar timeframe.

We don't believe you should be waiting months for your photos, but we also must acknowledge that editing photos in a quality way takes time.
